FAQs
What makes MaxLife Eco fabric special?
MaxLife Eco fabric is Arena's advanced, long-lasting material designed for maximum chlorine resistance and extreme durability. It also offers UPF 50+ UV protection and quick-drying properties, ensuring performance and comfort over time.
Is this swimsuit suitable for recreational swimming?
Yes, while designed for regular and competitive swimmers, its durability and comfort features also make it suitable for recreational swimming.
How do I ensure I choose the right size?
Refer to Arena's sizing chart for accurate measurements. The '28' in the product title indicates a UK dress size, so compare your measurements to the chart provided by Arena.
What is the benefit of the Challenge Back design?
The Challenge Back features an open back with thin straps and a high-cut leg, which provides maximum freedom of movement, excellent feel of water, and reduced drag, ideal for serious swimmers.
Can I use this swimsuit in a hot tub?
While the MaxLife Eco fabric offers excellent chlorine resistance, prolonged exposure to the higher temperatures and chemical concentrations in hot tubs can still degrade the material over time. It is best to rinse the suit immediately after any hot tub use.
How often should I replace this swimsuit?
Due to its extreme durability and chlorine resistance, this swimsuit is designed for long-lasting performance, potentially lasting an entire season or longer with proper care, even with regular use in chlorinated water.
Does the lining affect the fit?
The full lining is designed to provide comfortable coverage without significantly impacting the fit. It is intended to ensure the suit remains opaque and supportive during activity.
Troubleshooting
Swimsuit fading quickly
Ensure the swimsuit is rinsed thoroughly in cold water immediately after each use to remove chlorine. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.
Material feels stiff or less elastic
This can sometimes occur with heavy chlorine exposure. Ensure proper rinsing after each swim. If stiffness persists, a gentle hand wash with mild detergent may help, followed by thorough rinsing and flat drying.
Straps feel uncomfortable or dig in
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The Challenge Back is designed for a snug fit to reduce drag; however, if discomfort persists, consider if a different back style might be more suitable for your body type or preference.
Suit feels too see-through when wet
The suit is fully lined for coverage. If you experience transparency issues, ensure the correct size is being worn and that the fabric has not been excessively worn down. Contact customer support if the issue persists with a new suit.
